Professions — Limits

You can raise every gathering track to 100. Only two of the five crafting tracks per character can advance past rank 50. Shared disciplines use one slot: Smithing includes Jewelcrafting, Building includes Carpentry and Masonry, and Provisioning includes Alchemy and Cooking.

Rule	Limit
Crafts allowed to reach rank 50	All five
Crafts allowed above rank 50	Two
Other crafts after both advanced slots are used	26,009 XP; 1 short of rank 51

Lower-rank recipes remain available. Changing specialisations does not lower ranks or free an advanced slot. This choice does not cap the five gathering professions. See choosing-your-professions for profession pairs.

Activity	Daily limit	Shared by
